Once in a while I act like a child To feel like a kid again It feels like a prison In the body you're living in Because everyone's watching Greedy to start talking I'm losing my innocence Wish I weren't a little girl Who felt the weight of the world It would be nice to start over again Before we burn out I'd give my breath Let's play pretend Remember the times We had soda for wine And got by on gratitude The worst they could do to you Was check your attitude Yeah, when fights were for fun We had water for guns And a place we could call our own How we lost hold of that I guess I'll never know It would be nice to start over again Before we burn out I'd give my breath Let's play pretend And when it's the end Our lives will make sense And love, even We won't have to play pretend
